Diplomas and Certificates
Graduate Diploma in Arts
Some programmes require students who have not done a major in a subject they wish to pursue at the postgraduate level to enrol in a GradDipArts. This will provide them with the necessary preparation to undertake more advanced study in a subject.
The GradDipArts is also a way of extending a student’s qualifications. All subjects in Humanities that offer a major also offer a GradDipArts: American Studies, Art History & Theory, Cinema Studies, Classics, Cultural Studies, English, History and Philosophy
